[PW] Olsen & Johnson's "Laughing Song"

[Erica Cathers]

The 1941 movie version of Hellzapoppin, starring Olsen & Johnson, is
available in VHS tape format from Movies Unlimited through their own website
and also via Amazon.com. It's going for $14.99. I don't know, however,
whether the movie version included The Laughing Song.

Also, on YouTube.com, there are several versions of laughing songs,
including the version by George Younce which someone else mentioned.
